New Water Heater Installation or Replacement in Hillsborough

When it’s time for a water heater replacement, you have many things to think about. Luckily, Fras-Air/General Service Experts is here to help. Before you buy a new water heater, you need to decide which system best meets your family’s needs. Fortunately, the team of professionals at Fras-Air/General Service Experts are ready to converse with you about the things you’ll need to consider, including which type of fuel is ideal for your water heating needs, how big your water heater tank needs to be, how energy efficient the system is and which versions are within your budget.

Types of Water Heaters

Traditional tank water heaters hold significant amounts of water which is heated and ready to use.

Tankless water heaters heat water directly, when you need it.

Solar water heaters typically have a storage tank that holds water heated by the sun.

Water Heater Size

The size of your water heater depends on your hot water usage and on the kind of water heater you buy. Fras-Air/General Service Experts can help determine that by helping you understand your hot water usage, the flow rate of various devices in your living space and how many of them you’ll need to use at once.

For tankless water heaters, the progression will be comparable in that a local expert from Fras-Air/General Service Experts can assess your needs, considering your expected temperature rise based on the temperature of your water when it enters your house. After we’ve compiled the math for you, we’ll recommend a few selections as tankless water heaters are typically rated on a variety of inlet temperatures.

Sizing a traditional tank water heater can be a little more effortless than a tankless water heater because our experts only need to identify how much water needs to be gathered to meet your water needs at peak usage. It can all be a bit overwhelming but we’re here to help you.

Fuel Type

Depending on your location and other components, you have a variety of choices for powering your new water heater. It can also vary on where you live, but Fras-Air/General Service Experts will provide you with information on the best options for the Hillsborough area and your specific needs.

If you’re in Hillsborough, a tankless water heater is a wonderful option for saving energy and money. It has between 80% and 92% efficiency. Not only will tankless water heaters save space, but they also work in a entirely different way than typical tank-style water heaters, which heat all of the stored water at once. The problem with that is—if the heated water doesn’t get used up—the water cools sooner or later and needs to be reheated.

Tankless Water Heaters use gas burners or electric coils to heat water only when necessary, saving you big-time on energy bills. Think what it would be like to have a constant supply of hot water. Yes… with a tankless system you can run other appliances…and still get a hot shower! They are small in size, energy-efficient in design, and low-cost to operate.

With ENERGYSTAR®-certified models, and backed by the skilled plumbing team at Fras-Air/General Service Experts, you can be confident that you won’t have to fear taking a shower with cold water (unless you wanted to).

The tank water heater is designed to heat and store water in the tank, usually 40 or 50 gallons at a time. When the dishwasher, the washing machine, or a soothing hot shower runs, the pre-heated water that’s stored in the tank flows quickly to the point of use. The tank then refills, and the water is reheated. Tankless water heaters heat water instantly and can provide a virtually unlimited supply of hot water. But honestly, there are positives and negatives to both types of hot water heaters, and the decision to purchase one or the other should be based on your needs.
